About uSwitch

uSwitch is an impartial comparison and switching service. We help compare prices on gas & electricity, home phone, broadband, digital television, mobile phones and personal finance products including mortgages, credit cards, current accounts and insurance.  Our aim is to help customers take advantage of the best prices and services on offer from suppliers so they can get their best deal.

As well as offering online and telephone-based comparison, Energy customers also have the option to create an account to automatically monitor the market and notify them when they can move to a cheaper tariff - making future comparisons even simpler and faster. Our Broadband speed test tool also helps customers find out how fast their broadband is and to identify the best broadband provider for their postcode.

What is our culture?

Well we don’t like to boast, but our culture is quite unique.  We empower intelligent people to make intelligent decisions.  We give them the autonomy to experiment and the flexibility to develop ways to provide our customers a simple and personal service.  We’re all extremely proud of working here and that shows through the commitment and the passion in every day life at uSwitch. We don’t believe in hierarchy and we’re not at all corporate.  So in a nutshell we’re just what you’re looking for if you want to develop yourself and make a difference.
